Summary
Everyone he trusted with his secret – Will, Freya, Balinor, Lancelot, and now Gaius – was gone. Arthur would never bring magic back to the land, and he would never let Merlin stand at his side the way Merlin had hoped he would. It was a cold awakening, years of baseless faith dashed against the fraying tapestry that destiny had made Merlin sew into his own skin, but an awakening nonetheless.
Merlin is shaken out of his obsession with destiny and his blind faith in Arthur. Arthur just wishes he knew how to get his closest friend back.
(For Merthur Angst Week 2021 Day 7: “No. You don’t get to talk.”)

Summary
“I don't like or even read college AUs, but I'm strongly considering writing a Leverage one built entirely around the joke of a campus dean with the last name ‘Devlin’”
Sometimes I make puns on Tumblr and I have to make good on them. Here's the result.
Parker, Alec, and Spencer didn't ever intend to go to college, but when circumstance lands them all at Leverage University, their unique talents are swiftly recognized by the shady Professor Dubenich. He recruits them for an extracurricular task that unites them under the disgraced ex-professor Nate Ford, putting them all back on the paths they rejected in their quests for “normal” lives.

Summary
How long can one bottle their emotions inside, before they all spill out, creating an ugly mess? Faramir knows not, but he will find out sooner than expected.

Or is he?

Summary
Halfway between the capitals of Gondor and Rohan, Birandor and Yvion keep the beacon at Erelas, ever-ready for a great war. But how does life go for this pair of Gondorian beacon-Guards, living amid the high wind and the mountain-snow? Isolated though they are, a friend or foe might appear at any moment!
[This is written by my husband, Mr. Nisile, whose luddite tendencies prevent him from making an account. Posted with permission and prodding.]Teaser:
Over the decades of tour-ism, the beacons seven were served many a vexatious visitor, and the beacon-Guards found themselves having to entertain some of the strangest and most irritating discussions in all of Gondor, deflecting some of the most exasperating questions and requests.“Say, if the beacon over there gets lit, can I help to light this one? Please?”
“Oh, troll-feathers! My paints have frozen. I was hoping to paint a landscape from up here. You know, a diptych. But I’m sure that you have the exact thing I need—right?—liquid paints that do not freeze when it is freezing.”
“So, do you two ever, you know …”

Summary
A Modern day Merlin AU set at the University of St Andrews, featuring teetotal kickboxers, secret wizards, magnificent bodyguards of various genders, irate fairies, imprisoned dragons, crumbling gothic architecture, arrogant princes, adorable engineering students, stolen gold, magical doorways, attempted assassination, drunken students, shaving foam fights, embarrassing mornings after, The Hammer Dance, duty, responsibility, friendship and true love...
This story was inspired by the thought of Prince William of Wales (and indeed the current Max von Hapsburg) studying at the University of St Andrews; it is also, as the title suggests, at least a little inspired by the operetta 'The Student Prince'.
Grateful thanks to Lamardeuse and DarkEmeralds for Beta and cheerleading!
::2019 note: This story was written BEFORE the TV show introduced the character of Gwaine. It's not that I can't spell, or that I'm perversely writing him out of character - I incorporated other characters from Arthurian legend (Kay, Gawain etc) into my story, and lacking prophetic abilities, my versions naturally don't mesh with the versions subsequently introduced into the show.::

Resistance is Built on Hope by ChronicOlicity
Fandoms: Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (2016)

Summary
Rebelcaptain WWII AU.
The year is 1940, and Europe is at war. Jyn Erso keeps her head down, apart from the occasional brushes with the law. She doesn’t care about flags or countries or sides or allegiances. She’s been on her own for a good, long time, and she won’t fight for anyone except herself.
So when she gets into trouble in German-occupied France, she doesn’t expect anyone’s help – least of all a so-called rescue party spearheaded by the Resistance, who break her out in order to make an offer that promises to change her life forever.
Her father is a scientist working for Germany, and with his help, they have the potential and capacity to inflict untold damage using a new weapon. He needs to be found, and Captain Cassian Andor thinks she’s the one to do it.
A story of Rogue One characters coming together during a world war, under different (but hopefully interesting) circumstances. Because Rebelcaptain is beautiful and that beach scene was uncalled for and I need to fix some things.- Language:
